Call for Participation: The 9th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics: Resources, Applications, Best Practices

Dear colleagues,

for those interested in the intersection between language technology and
knowledge representation, the following might be of interest. Current W3C
Community and Business Groups that have a close relation to language
technology include, for example, the W3C CG Best Practices for Multilingual
Linked Data (BPMLOD), the W3C CG Ontology-Lexica (OntoLex), the W3C CG
Linked Data for Language Technology (LD4LT), among others. The development
of community standards and best practices for the intersection between
language technology and knowledge representation in the context of web
technologies has seen increasing interest in the past years, and in an
effort to reduce the entry barrier into these community groups, and to
facilitate the communication and coordinating between them, we would like
to invite contributors from these and other W3C Community Groups to
participate in the Language Community Groups meeting to be conducted as
part of the 9th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics at LREC-COLING'24.

*Call for Participation: The 9th Workshop on Linked Data in Linguistics:
Resources, Applications, Best Practices*

The Linked Data in Linguistics (LDL) workshop series has established itself
over time as the premier venue for presenting research on the application
of Semantic Web technologies to the fields of linguistics, digital
lexicography, and the digital humanities (DH). This year, in addition to a
series of presentations on topics of interest to the linguistic linked data
community, the workshop will also host a number of talks and in-depth
discussions on community standards and best practices in linguistic linked
data,  above all, those related to the work of the W3C community groups
OntoLex, LD4LT and BPMLOD. These talks will give an overview of the latest
achievements, developments, and perspectives of these W3C Community Groups;
an overview which will inform a number of open discussions regarding the
future directions and challenges for both Linguistic Linked Data standards
and the community behind it. We warmly invite participation both from
participants to these
groups and from anyone who is interested in finding out more about the work
they carry out. Please note that this year's edition will be held in hybrid
mode, so online participation is also available. For more information
